How tHe BBC was ruled to do the world a great mis-service

just when youth needed bbc to do whole truth reporting about economics it got 2 things terribly wrong about the world's leadinbg youth economist muhammad yunus

it had its head in bbc dhaka headhunted by hasina family's media group - so got early reporting on yunus consistently wriong

have we been there before? - yes we have wehn the bbc held an inquest in why had it be muzzled by tony blair (whosew wife incidentally helped free hasina!) about the verity of mass destruction, it conducted its own public inquiry concluding that 500 letters saying that a bbc run by politicians isn't equitable withy bbcinvestment by the public was only a minority view

Drayton was inspired by this genre to coin social entrepreneur in 1978 ,,continue the futures debate here
